The City Council of Bloomington is setting the stage for community engagement in its upcoming vote on urban enhancements slated for November 18, 2024. According to a
notice published by the city
, the council will contemplate initiating street improvements within the framework of the 2025-101 PMP Street Improvement Project. This hearing, pivotal for the infrastructure of the city, will take place at 6:30 p.m., offering citizens an opportunity to voice their concerns and suggestions in person at the City Council Chambers located at 1800 West Old Shakopee Road, over BTV or online.
Not limiting the engagement to those who can attend, the
City of Bloomington
has provided numerous avenues for residents to participate in the democratic process. Concerned citizens are encouraged to provide public testimony—either by showing up in person, or, bridging the gap between City Hall and home, by dialing via phone during the public hearing with an access code and password yet to be determined. They will be queued to speak to the council with a systematic *3 press on their phones, letting democracy ring in the form of a raised hand in the digital space.
For those who want to lend their voice without dialing in, there is a chance to submit testimony before the meeting. Voicemails can be left, or emails sent to the council secretary, with both avenues of testimony closing at 2 p.m. on the day of the meeting. The City has made it clear: if you have something to say about the 2025-101 PMP Street Improvement Project, there’s a way to say it. The public must remember to include their contact information and the relevant agenda item in their correspondence for it to be properly recorded and heard, as per the

Documentation to feed one’s curiosity about the meeting’s agenda—whether it pertains to paving or politics—is available at the
City’s official website
. Those on the hunt for more specifics or wishing to lob comments ahead of the public hearing can reach out to Brian Hansen of the Engineering Division.
